True the Vote claimed it had obtained “a detailed account of coordinated efforts to collect and deposit ballots in drop boxes across metro Atlanta” during the November 2020 election and a January 2021 runoff and its claims were relied upon heavily for “2000 Mules,” a widely debunked film by conservative pundit and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza.

Well, today, True the Vote admitted in court that it had no evidence to back up its claims.

Frustrated by the group's refusal to share evidence, Georgia officials took it to court last year. A judge ordered True the Vote to turn over names and contact information for anyone who had provided information, as well as any recordings, transcripts, witness statements or other documents supporting its allegations.

The group came up empty-handed despite having “made every additional reasonable effort to locate responsive items,” its attorneys David Oles and Michael Wynne wrote in a Dec. 11 legal filing first reported Wednesday by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.


The judge also ordered True the Vote to provide copies of any confidentiality agreements it had with sources.

The group's attorneys replied: “TTV has no such documents in its possession, custody, or control.”

Liars, plain and simple. Yet how many people, including some here, eagerly swallowed the “2000 Mules” swill?

It's all lies. I think most of us pretty much knew it by looking at it, and the election and voter fraud analysis showed us that. But it's another thing for there to be factually shown there is nothing to support the web of lies. It's important for the next generation.

Sadly, right wing media will not report this and the MAGA crowd will forever be convinced the 2000 Mules is a documentary about voter fraud instead of a big pile of steaming bullshit.

Meanwhile, a majority of Reps think (to this day!) that those weren't lies. That there was widespread fraud, and Trump really won. The liars should be held accountable (as in JAIL TIME). I'm not sure if this falls under protected speech. They knowingly lied, accusing election officials of being in on it (libel/slander?), and only when under oath did they admit it was a lie.
